    Well, there is as almost tie in the Tickman Challenge, with #3 so close behind as to be nearly as good:

    1 Alexloulou 100% 0:32.9 min. 2008-10-07
    2 bix21 100% 0:32.9 min. 2008-10-07
    3 gecian 100% 0:33.0 min. 2008-10-07

    I know that the difference in time between the first 2 is in the 100ths of seconds, something that does not show in the listing we can see.

    So I must award the nod to Alexloulou, even though Bix21 and Gecian are almost as deserving.

    Congrats to all, and apolgies to the 2nd and 3rd place players.

    I thought I saw in an earlier discussion that 100ths had been introduced for this. But over on the leaderboard, people are saying that there is no such provision, and it is all in who gets the winning score first. So: no split ATHs

    It is possible that I remember incorrectly, and it was just a request for using 100ths. If that system hasn't been introduced, it is a little awkward for me in this situation.

    I guess in either case, I can give a nod to Bix21, just that he may have to wait for November to get it as my October nods are all either given or promised to the GameFellas competitions.

    Sorry for Gecian who came so close. And to Equestenebrarum, who came in with an even better score after the close of competition. Both are very worthy competitors.

    I had a joint win with Thomsiboms or Sarah once in a tourney (don't remember who it was), it was stated by David then that it is the first who gets the score who stays in spot 1, I haven't heard of 100th not shown. However it may have changed since then.

    Here is proof that the last to earn the high score, not the first, gets #1 on the scoreboard:

    You'll notice that although DonDutch has #1, CarpeDiem keeps the ATH

    You are right, PETO, I looked up the old tourney, were Thomsi got his same time after mine:

    I think Davids statement was in the forum, but I can't find it and I sure remembered it the wrong way round. But it wasn't the 100th that were taken into account.

    Well, if it is the last, that's even worse.

    In the meantime, I found that there was a request for hundredths of seconds to be used, but there was no reply to that. This was in the forum:

    hundredths

    So I will give Bix21 his due in any case.
